The Foundations to the Science of Reading online course is great. It helps you build background knowledge on learning how students learn how to read, and then it goes deeper and it gives you strategies that correlate with those findings that you can implement right into your classroom. If you want to walk away feeling successful with helping kids read, take this course!
